Warning the illegal occupants, LDA Director General Ahmad Aziz Tarar said, “Any attempt to grab or illegally occupy state land by taking advantage of the present situation in the wake of Coronavirus pandemic outbreak will be foiled with full force.”

Speaking of the performance of the LDA staff during the lockdown, he said that the relevant field staff was regularly visiting different housing schemes despite the closure of government offices and all possible resources are being utilized to protect the state land from the land mafia. He also said that for the security of the recovered plots from reoccupation, boundary walls had been ordered already.
